TradeDay: EOD drawdown after a withdrawal
Understand how a withdrawal reduces room above TradeDay's drawdown floor even when the trailing calculation is based on end-of-day realized results.
EOD describes the update method
TradeDay distinguishes an EOD floor based on realized closing balance from intraday trailing based on open-profit peaks. EOD does not mean the account has no loss boundary during the session.

Diagram explained
Size trades from post-withdrawal headroom.
- Balance minus floor = room
- First payout may raise the floor
- Recalculate position size
Compute room before requesting
Hypothetical balance $53,000 and fixed floor $50,000 give $3,000 of room. A $1,000 gross withdrawal leaves $2,000, assuming the floor stays fixed and no other adjustments. That difference is trading headroom, not a payout forecast.

Check the first-payout lock
The Fast Pass FAQ says the first payout request moves an unfinished trailing floor up to the starting balance. Recalculate with that new floor before choosing the request; the old distance may overstate what remains.

Preserve future operating room
Write both a payout amount and a post-payout sizing plan. TradeDay's withdrawal note warns that vulnerable accounts may affect permission to rejoin after a loss. Vietnam is prohibited; this is an analytical example.
